Speaking in Tongues:ACT
2: 1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were
all with one accord in one place. ACT 2: 2 And
suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and
it filled all the house where they were sitting. ACT 2: 3 And
there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon
each of them. ACT 2: 4 And
they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other
tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. You can read the
full chapter, further down this page.

Speaking in tongues was a
gift granted only to the Apostles, because many people could not read
- 80% of the population at places. So how would God reach those nations
with the Gospel he wanted preached throughout the world: he gave the Apostles
the ability
to speak in all languages, so that they may go out and preach the Gospel.

Some of the Greeks and Jews
thought the Apostles were drunk, mad, etc., when they heard them speak
these words they did not understand: but then they found out what they
witnessed was the gift Jesus promised.

Do not be fooled by con-christians
whom claim to have, or whom try to make you believe, they have spoken in
tongues. This does not happen today - it was a gift only granted
to the very first followers of Jesus, so that they could preach to all
the Nations. Today most everybody reads and writes and the bible is translated
in almost every language of the world.

Read here the proof that
what I am 'preaching' to you (preaching meaning 'to mimic the doctrine
of another') is 100% truth:The Apostles were addressed
by Jesus: and now, after all that they had experienced, they must believe,
for else they would perish! In return, they were granted the powers to
lift wild snakes (of course without any science) but through faith in Christ,
protection from poisoning, and to speak all foreign languages. After
this, at a later stage, the Apostles were baptized with fire.They now believed . Some,
however, may argue that Jesus spike about the people the Apostles would
convert: they would receive this special gift. If that was so then,
still: it was only for those back then and not for us today. But I am certain,
for there is no proof to support the opposite, that this gift was only
granted to the Apostles. The
way in which the account was translated in English, make it sound like
many people spoke in tongues, but no: the Apostles spoke in tongues to
many people!

Jesus' promise to the
Apostles that they would acquire the gift of speaking in tongues.MAR 16: 9 Now
when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first
to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. MAR 16: 10 And
she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept. MAR 16: 11 And
they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her,
believed not. MAR 16: 12 After
that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and
went into the country. MAR 16: 13 And
they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them. MAR 16: 14 Afterward
he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with
their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which
had seen him after he was risen. MAR 16: 15 And
he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature. MAR 16: 16 He
that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not
shall be damned. MAR 16: 17 And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast
out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; MAR 16: 18 They
shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not
hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. MAR 16: 19 So
then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven,
and sat on the right hand of God.

Does the below account reveal
to us that all christians shall be granted this same gift: speaking tongues
etc. No: it does not; only the Apostles were granted this gift.

The way in which the account
was written/translated in English sounds like many people spoke in tongues,
but no: the Apostles spoke in tongues to many people!

The gift of speaking in
tongues granted to the Apostles:ACT 2: 1 And
when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord
in one place. ACT 2: 2 And
suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and
it filled all the house where they were sitting. ACT 2: 3 And
there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon
each of them. ACT 2: 4 And
they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other
tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. ACT 2: 5 And
there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation
under heaven. ACT 2: 6 Now
when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded,
because that every man heard them speak in his own language. ACT 2: 7 And
they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are
not all these which speak Galilaeans? ACT 2: 8 And
how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? ACT 2: 9 Parthians,
and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea,
and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, ACT 2: 10 Phrygia,
and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers
of Rome, Jews and proselytes, ACT 2: 11 Cretes
and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works
of God. ACT 2: 12 And
they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth
this? ACT 2: 13 Others
mocking said, These men are full of new wine. ACT 2: 14 But
Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto
them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known
unto you, and hearken to my words: ACT 2: 15 For
these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of
the day.

Read the Gospel to find the
truth: do not follow anyone or any church, but only follow the law of God.
Examine everything through reading the Gospel for your self.

...And The
Gates Of Hell Shall Not Prevail Against It

Through the ages Catholics and
other Nicolaitans tried to defy the above quotation by Jesus, oppressing
and murdering many, deceiving and misleading many more, but they have not
and shall not prevail against 'His Church'.
